America’s “favorite” couple is breaking up…and doing so very publicly. I guess there just wasn’t enough room for two egotistical divas in the relationship.
The cat fight that has ensued makes for great TV. Musk has criticized the budget bill, threatened to start his own party, and is ready to fund Trump’s impeachment. Trump attacked Musk’s credibility and called for the contracts with his companies to be cancelled. And this might be the first domino to fall in Musk’s business empire.
Tesla is on the fritz, SpaceX might be nationalized, and my internet (aka Starlink) could get much slower. For Trump, his big beautiful bill is backfiring; his coalition is fracturing (this fight is just one example of this), he’s burning through political capital, and his legislative agenda is collapsing.
Perhaps this episode would fit better in US Weekly or People Magazine.
